I love the Woman’s Home Companion Book by Naomi Judd. This is one of my favorite recipes from that book.
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded and diced
- 1 pound lean ground beef (round)
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 5 teaspoons flour
- Hot water
- 3 cans (101/4 ounces each) condensed tomato soup
- 3 cans (15 1/2 ounces kidney beans, undrained
- 1 can (16 ounces) stewed tomatoes
Garnishes (optional). Grated cheese, any kind, chopped onion and sour cream
- In a 4 quart saucepan over medium high heat, heat the oil. Add the onion and the green pepper. Cook, stirring until softened, about 10 minutes.
- Add the beef, breaking up clumps with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile in a small bowl stir together the chili powder, salt, pepper and flour. Stir in just enough hot water to make a smooth paste.
- Into the meat mixture, stir in the soup, beans and tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat. Stir in the chili powder mixture. Cover and simmer over low heat for at least 30 minutes or longer. Sir frequently to avoid scorching.
- Garnish with toppings.
